They are tested and certified in various security classes according to EN 1627–1630 to provide you with maximum protection against burglary attempts. In addition, they are approved as burglar-resistant retrofit products for timber and PVC systems according to DIN 18104-2.
Fittings for tilt and slide windows and window doors
The standard DIN EN 13126-17 deals with hardware for tilt and slide windows and window doors. It specifies the requirements and test methods for durability, strength, protective effect, and the functionality of this hardware. The properties of the hardware are expressed by a nine-digit classification code, similar to other parts of the EN 13126 series.
Series of standards for burglar-resistant building products
The standards EN 1627 to EN 1630 address burglary resistance of windows, doors and closures. They specify the requirements, classifications and test methods for products intended to protect against burglary attempts.- EN 1627 defines the general requirements and classifications.
- EN 1628 describes the test method for determining resistance under static load.
- EN 1629 covers the test method for determining resistance under dynamic load.
- EN 1630 focuses on the test method for determining resistance against manual burglary attempts.
These standards are crucial for construction products used in security-relevant areas.
Windows and doors – product standard
The standard DIN EN 14351-1 deals with the product standard and performance characteristics of windows and external doors that are not subject to special requirements for fire or smoke tightness. It specifies how these products are to be tested with regard to their energy efficiency, watertightness, air permeability, and other performance characteristics. This standard is essential for the CE marking of such construction products in Europe.
air permeability
The EN 12207 standard refers to the classification of air permeability of windows and doors. It defines how much air can pass through a closed window or door under certain conditions. The test is carried out by applying pressure differences across the product to measure its air tightness. These measurements are important for assessing the energy efficiency and comfort in buildings.
driving rain tightness
DIN EN 12208 is a European standard that deals with the classification of watertightness for windows and doors. It specifies how much water can penetrate a closed window or door under certain conditions. The test involves applying water pressure to the external surface of the product to assess its ability to prevent water ingress. This assessment is important for protection against moisture damage and to ensure energy efficiency in buildings.
resistance to wind load
The DIN EN 12210 standard relates to the resistance of windows and doors to wind loads. It specifies how these building components must be tested under various pressure conditions to assess their ability to withstand wind loads. These tests are crucial for ensuring the safety and stability of buildings during strong winds or storms.
Burglar-resistant retrofit products Part 2
The DIN 18104-2 standard relates to the retrofitting of burglar-resistant products for windows and doors. It defines requirements and test procedures to ensure that retrofitted components provide a certain level of burglary protection. This standard is particularly important for buildings where protection against unauthorized entry needs to be improved.General Questions about Parallel Tilt-and-Slide Fittings
